I recently watched the film and I’m happy to see you doing well today Colton! I’m now 32 and I study the word each day, traveling and dedicating my life to showing others how to walk this life path in order to get closer to God.

Please let Colton know that before his story came out most Christians could not really even imagine heaven even though they believed it existed. My generation of baby boomers thought heaven sounded boring with harps and angels. I really sensed a shift in the whole of the Christian community by you and many others like Kat Kerr in sort of bringing heaven to earth. This was a timing thing from God's perspective that He released this to us. God released it through you, Colton, someone who was genuine not just because you were young. We all have a chosen purpose that God plans for our lives (Ps. 139). A book written in heaven about us. Your purpose was more impactful than most of our lives to the world but God is answering the prayer He told us to pray... May it be on earth as it is in heaven! Thank you and God bless you!

[@CWILDESC]

Colton and his parents visited our church (First Baptist Church of Atlanta) at about the time of the release of their book and movie. Our son (now 24) was one of the assistants on the stage crew. When I asked our son how Colton behaved when he was off stage, our son said Colton kept to himself and prayed a lot. That helped convince me that Colton was telling the truth about his experiences in Heaven. Also in this video, Colton described the warmth on top of his head by the Holy Spirit and how that occurs all the time in Heaven. I experienced that once when my husband and I were visiting a church member who died later that day. As we circled his bed to pray for him with one of our pastors, I felt a warmth resting on top of my head. Our church member was smiling at the Holy Spirit / the Lord above my head. What Colton said in this video was used as another confirmation by the Lord that He was allowing that experience to happen to me to encourage our church member before he passed into Heaven.

My children were having such a hard time with the passing of a step sibling and I had them read your book, " Heaven is for Real" and it has given them such peace and understanding of life everlasting. Thank you sooooo much.

[@barbrajones349]

So nice to see that Colton has become such a nice young man who is so solid in his faith. God bless you Colton!

[@anvilangst7573]

I like the genuineness of Colton, for instance, he is training and studying to be an electrician. Many people might have tried to use such an experience to elevate themselves above others, to assume they should be a big time preacher or TV evangelist and for financial gain which would cheapen and corrupt the simplicity and beauty of the event. God's timing and the person he chose shows His great wisdom. Colton's nonchalant way of handling it provides the authenticity it needs and places the event on the level of the everyday person, who then can relate and believe that this is for them also, and not exclusively for "special people" only. I love the way Colton just presents it as even though it is an extraordinary thing, it is and extraordinary thing available to all who will receive Jesus. Jehovah is Good and truly Awesome

[@madhatter219]

Thanks to Colton. I read that book after my son died in 1996. He was 4 years old then. I wasn't that grounded yet into biblical understanding. Now at 64 yo i'm watching this video. Yes, it was of great help reading the book. Almost the same situation when parents panicked. Whatever made me picked your book, it's worth it

[@seeleygirl6178]

I hope he reaches more and more young people especially, doing the Lords work. Beautiful young man.

[@suebower3967]

I am so glad I saw this video today. I saw the movie and read the book. I'm going to watch it again today. Thank you so much, Colton, for doing this interview. You have grown up to be such a fine young man. I have been watching Kat Kerr on the Internet who has gone to Heaven thousands of times. What she explains about God has really given me hope. I was wondering if Colton has ever met Kat? I would love to known about that. I recently had to put down my beloved dog, Zoey, and it was the hardest thing I ever had to do. Kat had given me hope that animals do go to Heaven because God loves animals and they don't have a sin nature like us humans. She has comforted me in knowing that when I do go to Heaven I will see her again. I know now that she is in Heaven and is happy. Thank you very much!!

[@Redeemed.of.YHVH.thru.Christ]

What does the word of God say? Does God say He gives random people “visits” to Heaven? Do you ever test what Kat Kerr says against the scriptures as we’re commanded to do to weed out false prophets and false teachings? Do you even read the Bible? I’d say no, you don’t, because I’ve listened to Kat Kerr, and what she says does NOT match what the Bible says. Unfortunately, many people are deceived because they prefer to believe people rather than reading and believing the word of God. 90% of people just believe anything they hear spoken about Jesus Christ, salvation, and Heaven, but they never open the source of God’s truth in the KJV Bible to see if what they hear actually matches what God says in His word, even though He says we’re to test everything against the scriptures and make sure it’s actually true according to what God tells us is the ONLY source of truth. Jesus even says we’re supposed to make the scriptures our foundation in order to have unshakable faith. None of the disciples taught the early converts to Christ to rely on feelings, emotions, dreams and visions, etc. to know and walk in Christ and His truth. They taught to trust in God’s word in the scriptures, and live by God’s word, and test everything against the scriptures. Why would we depend on our feelings, emotions, and what others say, over the word of God, when God’s word says the heart is DECEITFUL above all things, and MANY false prophets have gone into the world?

Glad to see that this young man is older and still sharing his story. I see this was posted two years ago. I hope all of his family is doing well. All .

[@yougolook]

(evie ball) reading your book (ur Dad’s) made a Huge difference in my life! I lost my baby boy when I was 8 months pregnant, it felt like he did a ‘summersault’ & then never moved again! This was my 2nd child, I had a toddler at the time. My Dr sent me home with medication (to start labor) & to stay in bed (with a toddler).... about 3 1/2 weeks in..... my Mom visited every week & hubby checked one on us every day...... on this day, my Mom noticed red streaks going down from my tummy & down my legs. She called the Dr & he had her take me to ER...... long story, I’ve written it & getting ready to post it..... I sobbed all through the book cause for the first time, I realized my baby was in Heaven

[@anar3602]

Not only is your baby in heaven, you also get a chance to raise your baby. You should look up the testimonies of Kat Kerr who has been to heaven lots of times, so much insight. God bless.

[@marianking1379]

@@anar3602 do we really believe kat ,

[@anar3602]

@@marianking1379 Well . . speaking from my perspective, yes. Why? She is one of very few and sometimes the only person that has confirmed many spiritual experiences that I had personally that I never shared or talked about with anyone. Can't tell how amazed I was to hear someone else talk about this stuff. It's almost like confirmation that I wasn't alone or crazy.

[@crazycat1345]

I also had a near death experience. I was met by 2 glowing spirits and the love I felt from the spirit world was incredible. It is impossible to put into words what I was feeling. I was given a choice to stay because my job on earth was finished or I could go back to earth. Seeing I was newly married and had a stepson I chose to stay here in this reality. Changed my life for sure.

I am so happy you are here with us Colton. Thank you for always being willing to share your experience, it brings us all a little closer together.

[@teresacarpenter6117]

God Bless Colton! Your story inspired me,now I know more there’s hope for my girl who had a stroke 4 yrs ago now she’s blind but I know my faith and her faith is strong and lord is with us ❤

[@susanlunsford5719]

Thank U Colton Burpo for sharing your experience and I hope I see my parents, horses & dogs & my sister I never seen. I was born yr later after her death for she lived 24 hrs. She was so beautiful and my grandmother said God wanted her for his angel. My grandmother was a undertaker. Thank U for sharing your story!

[@ah2olyn65]

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ and much of what Colton shares is what I believe and what my Church teaches including children under 8 are saved to celestial glory, knowing God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are 3 personages, families are forever, life after death, continuous learning, the love of God and Christ for all of us. We are his children. I also love the connection of the portrait of Jesus by Akiana and what Colton said about his appearance. Thank you Colton for continuing your faith and belief in your experience.

[@tw1398]

Amazing interview, thank you both. I saw a tiny piece of heaven in a dream vision when I was a teen, so I know what Colton has trouble describing. It's real folks. 100%

[@globetrotter5800]

I read the book and am convinced that Heaven is for real! That little boy convinced me when he said that Heaven has more colors than we see here. And he mentioned revelation....yikes and yep. I'm convinced! I really like it when I get asked about Jesus, if I'm a believer. Without a doubt YES...and they ask me how I know....my answer is always the same. A 3 year old told me!!

[@foxecarpentress4964]

Love You Colton!!! So glad you didn't rebel and are still walking Strong, with King Jesus!!! Amen 🥰

[@heatherwall9571]

He is correct!!! I have had my own personal experiences with the almighty myself. It’s so beautiful when you feel that divine unconditional love comes flowing through you. It’s so indescribable …once you have felt this divine love you can no longer be in denial of its existence. That relationship is available for everyone here 🥰🙏💗

[@janvoelzke7866]

So important that you shared spending time in reading, praying and journaling how this will give you peace. How to let go let God.

[@auntiemsplace]

Awww, Colton is so sweet! Praise God for his witness! - and how GREAT is our God, who put him in such a wonderful place of beauty like Colorado?? I heard so many negative stories about his testimony but I honestly believe those are from 'ye of LITTLE faith.'

[@nancyrogan1081]

I am truly the woman with many many Stars I would say the most thankful thing that I have ever experienced I never received was the word and the knowledge of God it has made me a prayer Warrior I have prayed my whole life it has got me through so many trials and tribulations one was to hear my story they would wonder how in the world I am still able to talk about it and move forward there's no other way other than God's way loving in the Lord

[@Joy-fe4sd]

Thank you vey much for this interview…I watched the movie in 2014…what a humble young man….you are so right Colton as adults we complicate things…no wonder the Word of God says to have faith like a child….we just have trust the LORD with all of our heart and not to lean on our own understanding…Thank You Holy Spirit for leading me to this video🔥🔥🔥

[@violetmullikin1725]

8 years after my grandpa passed away, I dreamed that he brought me diamonds from heaven. And they were big diamonds and they were blue and pink and white and they were so big they were all like, the size of a nickel only bigger. Since I've had that dream I think about it quite a bit and I shared it with some of my family. I hope it helps them.

[@kathleenandrews1563]

I have heard someone say that the precious stones/gems are very large in Heaven.

[@violetmullikin1725]

Yes I've heard their sizes of unbelievable hugeness for lack of better words.. I told my friend about this dream that I had one time and I told him that my father in Heaven is very rich, and he thinks I'm just serving the Lord Jesus for his riches. People don't understand. I'm in it for the love not the riches. It is also about my Godly heritage. My Grandpa (the one who is in my dream) was a Pentecostal evangelist, and preached Revival's all over the United States. That is my heritage. ♥️💕♥️

[@kathleenandrews1563]

@@violetmullikin1725 Yes, it will be a great day when we get to see our Grandpas aga. My Grandpa loved the Lord with all his heart. I miss him so! He was so influential in my life. We were very very close. My Mom said she had a dream she saw him through a thick glass wall. He was marching with other men in a circle, men she recognized as church elders. I told her he must be in the Lord’s Army, like the children’s song.

[@caseycasey1]

Colton, thank you for sharing your story. I’m just listening to it now and it does give me a lot of hope and a calm. I lost my parents when I was kind of young my mom when I was 23 and my dad I think passed about a year later and I always wonder if they’re still around somewhere my sister passed away just a few years ago. Of course other folks have come and gone. I am so happy to hear about the animals. I’ve had so many loved animals in my life! Keep telling your truth, some people will never get it. Thank you for your courage and thank you for sharing your story. It’s helping me with my faith and making it stronger. What a blessing you’ve had and your families had and while I understand at times, it may have seemed like a burden, it is a blessing. Much love to you and your family!!! ❤️❤️❤️

He had the experience because he died briefly and all kids go to heaven when they die. Plus his testimony brings comfort to others. That's my take on it.

I'm talking from Brazil. Colton's book had help me, my family and my friends to increase our faith. Recently a friend lost her litlle daughter (eight months old) , she died in the pool, in her house! I bought a box with ten books and I'm sendding to my friends. It's helpping them a lot.

[@garydenton7303]

I simply can't put my finger on it, but Colton is like an angel in disguise. Perhaps it is all that is inside of him knowing the Eternal Life that he briefly experienced as a child in the Kingdom of God! Would so like to give him a hug, and a kiss on the cheek to acknowledge this incredible love of the Holy Spirit that resides in him. I can't imagine him zombie like walking down the street possessed by his iphone like most of the world's population at this hour and those of his age who have truly lost their way, and it seems no way out for them......but..... Jesus!

[@EmmaLouLoves]

Thanks Colton for still sharing your experience, and the point you made about still experiencing things here on earth helps too, as I know many struggle with whether we are meant to feel joy whilst on earth and how to live our everyday lives and walk with Jesus.

Colton, you had a true heavenly, visit. I believe you have a true calling. I have read and shared your book, and seen the movie 3 times. I live in Denver too..near the butterfly pavillion.

Thankyou for your testimony and, story. I pray and hope you continue on with,vwhat God has for you. God Bless, and please pray for Colo, its a hard place to live your faith out. I will be praying for you.✝️💙🙏

That was inspiring to hear. I wasn't sure Colton would be still so positive about it all after so many years. The question why God chose him is easy to answer after listening to him, because he is such a great messenger for God and really sweet. I hope he can stay that way through life's difficult trials.
